Overview

With the Leica 90mm Macro-Elmar-M f/4.0 Lens, Leica Camera AG presents a new, collapsible macro lens for the Leica M-System. As in the case of the previous generation of this lens, its performance has been optimized to cover the entire working range, from infinity to the closest macro focusing distance. This makes the Leica 90mm Macro-Elmar-M f/4.0 ideal not only as a moderate, universal telephoto lens, but also as a macro lens with exceptional imaging performance at close focusing distances. For example, in combination with the new Leica Macro-Adapter-M, specially designed and constructed for use with the Live View function of the Leica M, it allows photographers to capture spectacular close-up exposures at a reproduction ratio of up to 1:2.Features: Leica M Mount Aperture Range: f/4 to f/22 Multi-Layer Anti-Reflective Coating Retractable Lens Design 1:2 Magnification with Macro-Adapter-M The Leica Macro-Adapter-M is designed to be mounted between the camera and the Leica 90mm Macro-Elmar-M f/4.0. Its integrated helical screw system allows a variable extension of the lens of between 18 and 30 mm and thus enables the variation of the reproduction ratio. When mounted on the adapter, the Leica 90mm Macro-Elmar-M f/4.0 can also be used in its collapsed position for exposures up to infinity. Thanks to a new locking function, this allows photographers to set any distance from 41 cm (reproduction ratio 1:2) to infinity without having to dismount the adapter.As the Macro-Adapter-M is also compatible with other M lenses, it offers Leica M photographers an even wider range of opportunities for creative composition and additional variety in reportage portfolios. With Leica lenses from 50 mm and greater, it enables macro exposures up to a reproduction ratio of 1:2 and, with wide-angle lenses, even larger ratios. The lens-to-subject distance decreases with decreasing focal lengths. The use of the adapter with 28, 35 or 50 mm lenses creates fascinating effects. The short
